Kern River Gas Transmission Co.; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

April 21, 1995.
    Take notice that on April 17, 1995, Kern River Gas Transmission 
Company (Kern River) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to 
become effective on June 1, 1995:

First Revised Sheet No. 104
Second Revised Sheet No. 114
First Revised Sheet No. 115
First Revised Sheet No. 121
First Revised Sheet No. 122
First Revised Sheet No. 415

    Kern River states that the revised tariff sheets make certain minor 
changes to Kern River's capacity release program which will allow that 
program to operate more efficiently and increase its value and 
usefulness to shippers. Specifically, the revised tariff sheets will:
    1. Shorten the minimum time periods for a release that involves a 
Prearranged Bidder, to permit such a release request to be initiated 
closer to the proposed commencement date of the release;
    2. Define release proposals that may take advantage of shorter 
deadlines and processing periods as releases of ``three months or 
less,'' rather than the current definition of ``90 days or less,'' so 
that proposed releases that include months of 31 days can take 
advantage of the shorter deadlines and time periods;
    3. Eliminate the requirement for the Releasing Shipper with a 
Prearranged Bidder to warrant that the Prearranged Bidder has entered 
into a Released Transportation Service Agreement with Kern river that 
incorporates all terms and conditions of the Release Request. 
Prearranged Bidders will still be required to prequalify with Kern 
River by entering into a Released Transportation Service Agreement 
after demonstrating sufficient creditworthiness.
    Kern River states that the revised tariff sheets also update the 
telephone number of Kern River's Transportation Services Department.
    Kern River states that copies of the filing were served upon Kern 
River Gas Transmission Company's jurisdictional customers all affected 
State Commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, NE., Washington, D.C. 
20426, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.214 and 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests should 
be filed on or before April 28, 1995. Protests will be considered by 
the Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but 
will not serve to make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any 
person wishing to become a party must file a motion to intervene. 
Copies of this filing are on with the Commission and are available for 
public inspection in the Public Reference Room.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
